Currently eye-ing on the <b>Dell XPS M1530</b> and the <b>MacBook Pro 15&quot; 2.4Ghz</b>.<br /><br />Spec wise, the core stuff are pretty similar, price of course Mac is more pricey. But is Mac worth the price?<br /><br />Advantage of the Mac is the ability to dual boot Mac and Windows.<br /><br />Dell, is highly customizable and cheap. My old Dell serve me well for the past 5 years with no problems. Hence, can I expect the same for the new XPS?<br /><br /><br />I suppose the question now is which is more durable? which is a better choice? <!--emo&:stars:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/rclxub.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='rclxub.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br /><br />I haven&#39;t own a Mac before, so I thought it might be a good idea to start picking up a new OS?<br /><br />Pls advise <!--emo&:respect:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='notworthy.gif' /><!--endemo--> jcyeoh Mobile Computing Fri, 18 Jan 2008 02:10:02 +0800
